LAH vs PES Match Preview

Lahore Qalandars and Peshawar Zalmi will face off on Saturday afternoon at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Match 17 of the 2024 Pakistan Super League season. So far in the competition, the Qalandars have played six games and lost six, while Peshawar Zalmi has six points from five games. Lahore Qalandars were defeated by Multan Sultans by 60 runs in Match 14 on Tuesday. Confidence is extremely low on the side, and it would be a shock. Peshawar Zalmi got off to a slow start in the 2024 PSL. But they are now up and running, moving up the table. However, they have defeated Multan Sultans, Lahore Qalandars, and Islamabad United in previous matches.

Topmost Picks for LAH vs PES Dream11 Prediction:

Top Picks – Lahore Qalandars

• Rassie van der Dussen- the tall right-handed top order batter comes into this game averaging 75 from six innings in this campaign.
• Sikandar Raza- we expect the Zimbabwean’s pace off spin bowling to be a good option for reducing the run-rate in Rawalpindi in this match.

Top Picks – Peshawar Zalmi

• Babar Azam- only Chris Gayle has hit more T20 hundreds than the 29 year old who was awarded Player of the Match after hitting 16 boundaries against Islamabad United.

LAH vs PES Probable Winners:

It is difficult to argue in favor of the Lahore Qalandars winning this match, especially after they were soundly defeated in their previous match. Although some individual players have produced strong performances, their team lacks depth, which is why they are still searching for their first victory of the season. Peshawar Zalmi’s batters and bowlers are in excellent form, and we expect them to win again in this game. Considering the team combination, Peshawar Zalmi is expected to win this match.
